It points to a January 19, 2012 date.
There's an event on the 20th in Japan regarding the anniversary of the series and the teaser of the upcoming 5th movie (Retribution) will be revealed between the 18th and 19th online and will be with Underworld Awakening (in 3D) on the 20th.

So, sorry if this has been discussed....anyone knows something else? Some thread already discussing/dissecting/solving this?

EDIT:
There's a video of a woman speaking in mandarin like sending a video message about how things will be alright if they stay inside... and some of the rumors pointed to RE6 been on China too.

No hope left-- every game reveal from here until the crash of the industry will be proceeded by a viral campaign that will lead up to an announcement of an announcement coupled with a 10 second cutscene trailer.

Who lets people spraypaint this crap (if not shopped) around their town? :/

Also I extremely hope it isn't a Bio6 after Bio5 left a horrible terrible taste in my mouth even though I platinumed and 1000'd GS'd it three times each with what they did with the established villain of the series. I don't want anymore if that's what they're going to continue to do.

On an unrelated note, anyone else catch that CNN ticker news about a woman in california biting two kids in a library all of a sudden?

Resident Evil 6 is going to happen at some point, so might as well end the generation with it. Besides Revelations is getting good ratings/better than 5 impressions all over, so it might not be that bad. Besides, they had to move away from Wesker at some point right?

Yeah, tough it apparently turned out that it wasn't a bite, but she just "pinched" them and the investigation agreed that the marks didn't' matched with bite marks. She was arrested anyway because she fled the scene and one of the kids was bleeding.

Though keeping in mind that is the rumors a true:
-The direction will be quite different to RE5 (but no word on how different)
-The game is not developed by Capcom, but by a "western developer"

Guess we'll know for sure, by Thursday/Friday; since 14PST of the 19th is 6-7AM in Japan of the 20th. The "15th anniversary thing" is on the 20th, but apparently not until 7PM.

Better than surprise zombies I guess :P

Either way, i'd be fine with a direction different than RE5 as long as there isnt any forced co-op style scenario (option co-op local/online would be great though). A western developer make me pessimistic on the game's outcome though. Its already happened to Silent Hill...dont need it to happen here. Dead Rising 2 might have been a fluke (and even thats still up for debate).

Haha.. :p
But yeah. In any case, as long as it's good and if the changes are for the best, then bring it. :p

Do hope that is not just RE5 with another setting. As much as I loved and played RE5, all this years waiting for just the same but in China would be just..disappointing.

Isn't that just another viral campaign for Raccoon City? Same style than their Inserted Evil blog: purposely crappy production values and "testimonial videos". Just seems like the continuation of the same thing.

They apparently stopped doing viral websites for Operation Raccoon City some months ago, right around the same time they announced the delay from 2011 to 2012.
This one was recently spotted and has a relative focus on China and Europe; instead of the more Raccoon City/Umbrella centric viral sites of ORC.

But guess well know for sure in a few days..or maybe sooner.
Though yeah, would be funny if it was just or ORC. Then again, for Revelations a few viral stuff was also made, but less stalked about (like the recent video of the creature found in a beach).

So it seems that Capcom likes using viral stuff for RE.
Kinda similar to the Regenerate commercial for the second movie; which ended been one of the most downloaded trailers of that year. They did something similar for the third one, didn't for the 4th one..but the 5th one's teaser will apparently have one too (rumors point to: a cellphone commercial and people talking about the world united and peace, etc.)
